Full Description

The 9th Street R (subway cars, white ceramic tile, grout) depicts a speeding train that has been temporally shifted according to the background pattern of white ceramic wall tiles. The single channel work is comprised of 326 individual video tracks with each track corresponding to a single wall tile. The 9th Street R…is part of a larger series of work titled Towards a Disdain for Daily Rituals in which Klersfeld acts upon the architectural patterns that passively bear witness to daily ritualistic behavior.
